Hello Temple Beth Shalom Members and Friends, this Shabbat is all love (why should this one be any different? 😄❤️)!  Rabbi Herzfeld will lead our Shabbat service on Friday, February 14 at 7:30 pm.  You can as always attend with us in our sanctuary or on Zoom.  Our Meryl Crews will be unable to sing with us, but you may be able to sing for her!  She might be able to join us on Zoom, so attend if you can and show what she taught you.

Torah Study is again hybrid, set up at our building and also available on Zoom on Saturday, February 15 at 10:00 am. Contact us for the Zoom link.

Mi Shebeirach — Meryl Crews

February 11, 2025 by • ,

Dear Temple Beth Shalom Congregation, one of us needs your healing support at this time.  Our longtime member, cantorial soloist, and friend, Meryl Crews, fell ill and has been hospitalized at Lakeland Regional Health for the last 10-12 days.  Some ways you can support Meryl and her family at this time:

  • Meryl is getting better but has a lot of recovering to do.  She cannot talk right now, but loves you all and welcomes visitors.  
  • Jimmy is spending all of his time with Meryl and would benefit from microwaveable, prepared meals (he needs gluten-free).
  • Your prayers for healing always help.
